MerseyGrey Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 It will save your back since you won’t have to get on the floor to give her scritches. Trust me, I know - Buddy won’t get on the sofa so I spend half my time on the floor next to his bed Quote Buddy Molly 🌈 5/11/10-10/10/23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LBass Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Well, yeah, it's a foregone conclusion that they get what they want and we have no real say in the matter. Only 2 of my 4 have wanted up on the bed and they both got what they wanted. MoMo even demanded to get under the sheets. There were hilarious lessons about how hounds can't get under the sheets while standing on the sheets. Current hound, Nate, LOVES my sister's comfy reading chair with ottoman. She would rather he not get up there, but I'm sure you can imagine how well that works out for her. Quote Lucy with Greyhound Nate and OSH Tinker. With loving memories of MoMo (FTH Chyna Moon), Spirit, Miles the slinky kitty (OSH), Piper "The Perfect" (Oneco Chaplin), Winston, Yoda, Hector, and Claire.

palmettobug Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Yeah, I was like, my next grey won't be sleeping in the bed...Fuzzy has made it clear she is cold and won't settle unless she can get up there...Now Roman wants to join the warmth, but a full size bed+2 galoots+one red girl doesn't work. G will sneak on the bed if he has to stay gated in the bedroom for a while. Quote Current Crew: Gino-Gene-Eugene!

FiveRoooooers Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Eight weeks? How did you ever last that long I had two (during different camp enrollments) who reliably slept with their head on my shoulder every.single.night. After they each went to the Bridge, well, sleep has just never been the same. Quote Old Dogs are the Best Dogs. Thank you, campers. Current enrollees: Punkin.

Oh My Word. I can't tell you how many times I've had to tell Mercury he has to MOVE before I could cover him because he was standing on the blanket. Eight weeks, huh? That might be a record.
